About the mushrooms, the Fly Agaric is NOT EDIBLE ! It is one common poisonous shrooms. I repeat, do not eat! And about the art -I love it and you are a real inspiration for me to take on plein air sketching 💚 (yes, i miiight be bingeing through the vids on your channel now :p)
Fly Agaric is actually edible but only when prepared properly; i.e boiled for hours and only the top part not the stem as far as I know. People do use this for recreational uses but only those who prepare it the proper way.. just a heads up to the other comment. And great sketches! woooo I may volunteer myself for this , this October but Ive bought a new puppy so my hands may be too full... 😂😂😂🤗❤️
Halfway through watching this I realized how hungry I was, hehehe! Love these sketches, they're so lovely!! And you've inspired me not only to draw more foods but to finally get cracking on making some butternut squash soup (I've had a butternut sitting on my counter for a few days now...)
Love all of them. I think the chestnuts were my favorite, even though I've never eaten one. :) Speaking of eating: you mentioned your mushroom spread was all edible: don't eat a fly agaric (the red one with white spots). It's super poisonous. I mean, you could still *eat* it, but you'd really only eat it *once*. :D
Thanks Elizabeth really kind of you to say! Now this is where is gets interesting- I initially thought it was poisonous and I think it is if you just eat them straight but I've also read if you prepare them properly they can be digested without making you sick and have many health benefits. I would still be cautious about eating them though and would want an expert in mushroom cooking to prepare them for me! This is an article I found: mushroomzoom.com/can-you-eat-the-fly-agaric-mushroom/ See what you think!
I'm always inspired by your beautiful drawings, Melanie! I'm wondering how you put the drawings together into one page to post on Instagram. Looks nice on the grid ♡
That was so much fun to watch! Thanks for the tip about the site: They draw food. I like this challenge better than inktober topics.
Me too!
DELIGHTFUL!!!!
Your voice is very calming and soothing to me.

@@MelanieChadwick Ha! Actually, I end up roasting it, and it was delightful!

Thanks Karen! I used an app to collect all the images together and then posted it as one post. I think the app is called Layout.
@@MelanieChadwick Thank you! I'll probably try it ♡
